Overall Experience

I'm so happy I found Tiddlywinks Day Nursery Ancoats. My son took a while to settle into the new routine but the staff were always patient with him and did everything they could to make him comfortable and happy. Now he's so excited to come to nursery. And he's always talking about the nursery workers at home. He loves them and he loves going every day. It's clear all the staff genuinely care about him and I leave him here knowing he's in great hands. I'd recommend this nursery to all.

Overall Experience

I find the staff very friendly and interested in my child's development. They provide tips for carrying on learning at home and provide regular updates on my child's progress. I highly recommend them and will be sorry when my child has to say goodbye when he leaves to start school.

Tiddlywinks nursery is brilliant, the staff are excellent, the nursery is clean, my two boys love it and always enjoy coming here. I am very proud of Tiddlywinks Nursery as I think it's the best nursery around and I am glad my boys come here, as I wouldn't want them to go anywhere else.

Review from Michelle S (Mother of Child) published on 19 April 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started here a year and a half ago and all the staff I have ever come across have been friendly, caring and supportive. They all want the best for the children in their care and this is reassuring. Management have an open door policy and make sure they are seen and available.

I work in child protection and have high expectations from anyone caring for my child and these expectations are met by all the wonderful staff. Thanks

Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to this nursery since she was around 8 months old and she is now 2 years old. She absolutely loves it here and there have never been any issues.

My daughter loves being with all the other children and she also feels really comfortable around the staff. They are all very welcoming and made us feel so relaxed leaving her there as we can see how happy she is and how much fun she has.

Thank you Tiddlywinks staff for looking after our little girl! Would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents.

Review from Gemma (Mother of Child) published on 8 April 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 2 and 3/4-year-old daughter loves coming here and has been coming since she was 11 months old. The nursery has always been supportive and really helped. She struggled to settle in initially. She talks to me on the way home about her friend at nursery and what she's been doing during the day. The staff are wonderful and her key worker is great at sharing with us what she's done in the day. I feel that the staff really work with the parents to do the best for the kids. I strongly recommend Tiddlywinks.

My daughter really enjoys coming to the nursery and loves all the staff that work with her. There are always things going on at the nursery for the children to be involved with and the other children that come seem to love it just as much as my daughter.

Review from Kelsey B (Mother of Child) published on 25 July 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Since my daughter came to this nursery in July 2016 she has come on so much. She is only 2 and she can count to 12, knows all her colours, recognise most of her numbers and can sing the alphabet.
She is really good at talking and telling me what she wants and is doing really well with her potty training.
This nursery is brilliant and all the girls are excellent at their jobs.

I always feel welcome, it's a lovely setting.

Review from Deepa R (Mother of Child) published on 25 June 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I would highly recommend this nursery. The nursery team was very helpful in making my little boy settle in so fast. My little boy enjoys the nursery very much that when he sees his picture on nursery website he gets excited! Also, the food is tasty and hygienic, that he loves finishing it every day. His language development and other skills have been significantly improved as we talk our native language in our home, I can see the development. The environment is lovely as well, with a fish tank and other pictures which he loves to touch while arriving and leaving the nursery. Finally, I'm simply amused by seeing most of the nursery staff recognising the names of each child at the nursery!!

Overall Experience
Since starting at the nursery over a year ago, my daughter has been made to feel both happy and welcome. The communication between home and nursery is very good and I especially like the use of parentzone and the ability to contribute to my daughter's learning journey.

I am extremely satisfied with the care given to my daughter.

Review from Caroline G (Mother of Child) published on 21 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter started at Tiddlywinks Ancoats May 2015. I was extremely nervous and worried about her going to nursery as I had never needed to use one with my other 3 children. The staff were amazing and my little girl loves going to nursery everyday and has thrived during her time there. I couldn't have chosen a better place for her to be cared and nurtured whilst I am at work. The staff are always bright and bubbly not just with the children but with us parents too. Its always clean and fresh, even when the children are messy playing. A wonderful nursery and amazing staff. Almost like extended family.

Overall Experience

The staff at Tiddlywinks Day Nursery have been excellent with my son from day one. He settled very quickly with them, clearly because they are all so friendly and welcoming. They all include me in everything he does and the regular parent gatherings allow even more input. The setting is brilliant both inside and out, the play facilities are excellent and the site is very secure. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

Overall Experience

Tiddlywinks is one of the best nurseries I know. Since I started taking my children to Tiddlywinks I cannot complain. The staff are so friendly and very welcoming. Whenever I come to drop my children off to the nursery the staff will always greet you with a smiley face and ask how you are doing. When leaving they will always see you to the door, they will always accompany you to the door and say goodbye. The nursery is always clean and he children well looked after or well cared for. I am very happy my children attend the nursery.
